Does anyone know how to avoid using the GUI on the Control Panel to go
from fixed IP to DHCP Client?

Thank you.

I think you can do this as follow :
1) Make sure "DHCP client is running with "net start" command. If not, activate that service with the command :
net start "DHCP Client".
2) right click on "network neighborhood" then select "properties". Choose "protocols" tab, select "TCP/IP protocol" and "properties" again.
Check "Obtain an address IP from a DHCP server".
You'll have to reboot the machine.
Hope this will help you
